Rush Hour - 1998
Chris Tucker - James Carter
Elizabeth Pena - Johnson
Detective Tania Johnson was James Carter's partner in the LAPD. She specialized in bomb diffusion and appeared in Rush Hour. She is portrayed by Elizabeth Peña.
Tania Johnson is the LAPD's bomb squad expert and sometimes partner to Carter. She doesn't like that Carter prefers to work alone, as he's the only cop in the department without a partner. It was secretly hinted that she had romantic feelings for Carter as he teases her about it several times in the film. She could be seen later in the film trying to practice how to disable a bomb in a training room. During the climax she help defuses the C4 vest that Soo-Yung was strapped to which saved her and she gives the vest to Lee ordering him to get rid of the vest as the remote could still set it off.
When a Chinese diplomat's daughter is kidnapped in Los Angeles, he calls in Hong Kong Detective Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) to assist the FBI with the case. But the FBI doesn't want anything to do with Lee, and they dump him off on the LAPD, who assign wisecracking Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker) to watch over him. Although Lee and Carter can't stand each other, they choose to work together to solve the case on their own when they figure out they've been ditched by both the FBI and police.
